Tagging Programs and Data Storage Tags

The 4R3Pn Cod, 2J3KL3Ps Cod, Lumpfish and Atlantic Halibut Tagging programs provide valuable information about distribution, abundance of species, tracks growth rates, migrations patterns, and spawning behavior.

DST (Data Storage Tags) is a small electronic device that records temperature, depth and time at 15 minute intervals for years. It is inserted in the body cavity of cod by trained FFAW staff and fish are set free.
